The Piston & Nut Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It plays a critical role in the dishwasher’s water management system, helping to control water flow and ensuring proper drainage during the wash cycle.

You should replace this piston & nut assembly if it becomes worn out or damaged. Causes of a bad piston & nut assembly can include mineral buildup from hard water, general wear and tear from regular use, or physical damage due to debris or foreign objects in the dishwasher.

The Complete GE Pump and Motor Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE dishwashers. This assembly is integral to the dishwasher’s functionality, as it combines both the pump and motor components that work together to circulate water during the wash and rinse cycles. The pump forces water through the spray arms, while the motor drives this process, ensuring thorough cleaning of the dishes.

Over time, the pump and motor assembly can wear out due to constant use and exposure to water and detergents. Additionally, debris or hard water buildup can clog the pump, causing strain on the motor and leading to failures. Electrical issues or damage from power surges can also impair the assembly's performance.

Symptoms of a bad pump and motor assembly include:

• The dishwasher not cleaning dishes properly
• Water not circulating or spraying during cycles
• Unusual noises, such as grinding or humming, coming from the dishwasher
• Water not draining properly from the tub
• The dishwasher not starting or completing cycles

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
